nanoporous graphene which is used as nanosorbent was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method via porous zinc oxide nanocatalyst. the reaction was carried out using methane as the carbon source and hydrogen as the carrier gas in a ratio of 4:1 at the temperature ranging 900-1050°c for 2-50 min. the product was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscop...

the effect of evaporation rate on structural, morphological and optical properties of electron beam evaporated cds thin films have been investigated. cds thin film deposited by electron beam evaporation method in 12nm/min and 60nm/min evaporation rates on glass substrates. x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, uv-vis-nir spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy were used to character...

Aluminum coating was prepared on AZ91D magnesium alloy substrate using the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method in absolute ethanol solvent. In order to determine the optimal concentration of AlCl3.6H2O additive, the zeta potential and size of particles in the suspension were measured in the presence of different concentrations of AlCl3.6H2O. The results showed that an appropriate coating is...

this paper is concerned with asphaltene deposition in fluid flowing through pipelines. brownian diffusion and drag, gravitational, thermophoresis, buoyancy, and shear removal are considered as possible mechanisms in the asphaltene deposition process. the thermo-physical properties of the fluid were obtained from iranian oil fields. a model was used in the pipeline deposition modeling to predict...

chemical vapor deposition (cvd) is one of the most popular methods for producing carbon nanotubes (cnts). the growth rate of cnts based on cvd technique is investigated by using a numerical model based on finite volume method. inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as carrier gas enters into a horizontal cvd reactor at atmospheric pressure. in thi...

in this article electrochemical determination of captopril at the surface of the platinum coated nanoporous gold film (ptnpgf) electrode is reported using the cyclic voltammetry and amperometry. for the preparation of ptnpgf, the surface of npgf electrode was covered with cu layer using underpotential electrochemical deposition (upd).afterward, the copper layer is replaced with platinum ions vi...

in this work we sought to determine whether vesicles (liposomes/niosomes) were able to enhance finasteride concentration in the dermis layer, including the pilosebaceous units (psu). such enhancement could be beneficial in the treatment of some androgen-related skin disorders. hamster flank skin was used to study  3hfinasteride permeation via vesicles and a hydroalcoholic solution (ha). the dru...

     The purpose of this study was to investigate the deposition of the hydroxyapatite (HA) coating via the electrophoresis procedure. The HA deposition was performed in an ethanol, methanol, acetone and isopropanol suspension. Methanol was found to be the best deposition media. Among the different environmental conditions, including the encapsulation of the samples under two vacuum types of pr...

self-assembly of densely packed zno nanorods were grown on porous silicon (ps) substrate by low-temperature chemical bath deposition. the structural and optical properties of the obtained zno nanostructures on ps substrate were systematically studied. the strong and sharp (002) peak compared with other peaks in the x-ray diffraction (xrd) indicated thatzno nanorods formed with superior orientat...

despite having some useful properties, stainless steels suffer from lack of suitable surface hardness. in this research electroless ni-b-tl coating was used with the aim to increase their surface hardness. the effects of nickel chloride, sodium borohydride, thallium nitrate and ethylendiamin on the chemical composition of coating were studied. to achieve an increase in hardness, the effects of ...
